How 787 BOSS works
787 BOSS enables an IP link by securely interfacing to the passenger connectivity system (PCS). This allows the flight deck to access faster data speeds and lower data costs.
Our previous flight deck solution relied on SwiftBroadband for in-flight connectivity, resulting in data speeds that are now much slower than what’s experienced in the passenger cabin.
Airlines will future-proof their flight deck connectivity strategies with 787 BOSS. As the continued evolution of portable EFB applications leads to higher data consumption, the need for faster flight deck connectivity has become more critical than ever.
Benefits of 787 BOSS
Faster flight deck data Up to 30 times faster than current solutions.
Lower data costs Consume lower-cost data using your passenger connectivity system.
Future-proof your fleet Equip your flight deck with connectivity speeds that meet the ever-increasing need for data.
787 BOSS frequently asked questions
How does 787 BOSS work with my portable EFB?
If your portable EFB is enabled by the Crew Wireless LAN Unit, the IP link between the passenger connectivity system and flight deck enables live data uplinks via offboard connectivity.
How does 787 BOSS lower flight deck data costs?
By routing flight deck data traffic through the passenger connectivity system, airlines can consume lower-cost data plans and reduce per‑MB charges for flight deck applications.
How does 787 BOSS compare to legacy flight deck data links?
Legacy flight deck data solutions have relied on Swiftbroadband. 787 BOSS leverages satellite-based passenger connectivity to enable flight deck offboard connectivity speeds up to 30 times faster than current solutions.
